I found the most delicate boy,

who steals looks when the thinks

I don’t notice.

And, oh, he’s going to ruin me.

He really is.

I already know it.



He watches like he’s afraid

to want me and I

watch like I’m afraid

to be wrong.

I am cataloging every look,

every sideways glance,

every shy smile that has us

both looking at our laps.



My chest feels heavy.

My hands are too warm

to keep all to myself

and I’m burning up.

Like an ancient sun.

And I want him.

And it’s going to ruin me.

I just know it.
